Description

【０００１】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、商品や部品を収納した包装用容器や輸送車の扉などを封緘する表示部付きの封緘具に関するものである。
【０００２】
【従来の技術】
商品や部品を収納した包装用容器等や、コンテナ、倉庫、金庫、輸送車の扉等を封緘し、移送や保管時に開封されなかったことを確認できるようにした合成樹脂製の封緘具が、幾種類も使用されている。
これらの封緘具は、単に結束バンドの両端部に雄部と雌部を設けて、封緘時に雌部に雄部を係合させて解除不可能なループを作り、このループで封緘している。そして、この封緘を解くには、ループを切断して破壊する必要があるため、ループの損傷の有無により封緘が解かれたか否かを判断することができる。
【０００３】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかしながら、従来の封緘具では、情報を記入する部分がなく、移送や輸送に伴う情報、例えば、物品の所有者名、輸送先、発送元、内容物、封緘日時、連絡先等の文字の他、分類用のナンバーやバーコード等の各種記号を付加するためには、封緘のループに表示札などを吊り下げたり、封緘とは別に箱に貼り付けたりする必要があった。
【０００４】
そのため、封緘具とは別の表示札を用意する必要があり、封緘のループ内に表示札を入れる作業や貼り付ける作業等が発生して煩わしい上に、また、読み取り作業時に表示札が裏返しになったりするので、手で表示札の情報を記入してある部分が表になるようにしてから、読み取り器を当てて読み取り作業する必要があり、そのため、封緘及び読み取り作業が煩雑になるという問題があり、また作業が煩雑で複雑なため、機械化・自動化も難しいという問題があった。
【０００５】
また、表示部に封緘バンドを設けて、バンド体に連続的に形成した歯を、バンド体の頭部に形成した挿通孔の爪に噛合させて封緘するもの表示部付き封緘バンドがあるが、封緘時にバンド体の先端を挿通孔に通す作業が不可欠であり、そのため、片手で挿通孔のある頭部を持って、他方の手でバンド体の先端を持つ必要があり、両手による封緘作業が必要となって、作業が煩雑であるという問題がある。また、挿入作業があるため、機械化・自動化が比較的難しいという問題がある。
【０００６】
本発明は前記したような問題点を解決するためになされたものであって、その目的は、封緘作業を片手で簡単に行うことができると共に、情報記入部の位置を封緘部分に対して一定になるようにして情報の読み取り作業も簡単化でき、更に、封緘及び読み取り作業の機械化が容易な表示部付き封緘具を提供することである。
【０００７】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明の表示部付き封緘具は、表面に情報記入部(5) と第１嵌合部(20)を有する表示板(2) と、該表示板(2) の側部から延長した可撓性の連結部材(3) と、該連結部材(3) の先端に設けられ、かつ、押圧により前記第１嵌合部(20)に係合する第２嵌合部(40)を有する止め部(4) とから構成され、前記第１嵌合部(20)と前記第２嵌合部(40)とが係合した際に前記止め部(4) が前記情報記入部(5) を覆わないようにした表示部付き封緘具において、前記第１嵌合部 (20) を、前記第２嵌合部 (40) の嵌合孔 (43) より大径の頭部 (22) と前記嵌合孔 (43) より小径の首部 (21) とからなり、かつ、前記頭部 (22) を弾性変形させて前記嵌合孔 (43) を通過させるための空間部 (23) を有する雄部の構造とすると共に、前記第２嵌合部 (40) を、拡径可能な前記嵌合孔 (43) を形成する複数の円弧状の嵌合部材 (41) と、前記第１嵌合部 (20) と前記第２嵌合部 (40) とが係合した際に前記嵌合部材 (41) 間の隙間 (45) を塞ぐ障壁 (42) を有する雌部の構造とする。
【０００８】
他方、前記第２嵌合部 (40) を、前記第１嵌合部 (20)の嵌合孔(43)より大径の頭部(22)と前記嵌合孔(43)より小径の首部(21)とからなり、かつ、前記頭部(22)を弾性変形させて前記嵌合孔(43)を通過させるための空間部(23)を有する雄部の構造とすると共に、前記第１嵌合部 (20) を、拡径可能な前記嵌合孔(43)を形成する複数の円弧状の嵌合部材(41)と、前記第１嵌合部(20)と前記第２嵌合部(40)とが係合した際に前記嵌合部材(41)間の隙間(45)を塞ぐ障壁(42)を有する雌部の構造とする。
【００１０】
これらの構成により、封緘を必要とする封緘部分に、本発明に係る表示部付きの封緘具の止め部と連結部材を通して表示板の第１嵌合部に止め部の第２嵌合部を重ねて押圧して係合させることにより、容易に連結部材によるループを形成して封緘できる。この封緘作業は、片手で簡単にできるので、封緘作業の効率をアップできる。
【００１１】
また、表示板の向きと封緘部分に対する位置が一定になるので、一々手で情報記入部を改める必要がなく、片手で読み取り器をこの情報記入部に接触乃至対向した位置に移動できるので、読み取り作業も簡単にできる。
また、前記連結部材の略中間に他の部分よりも太断面のＵ字形状部を設けたことにより、封緘時に、このＵ字形状の部分によって止め部と表示板の相対位置が決まり、力を加えない時には、止め部が第１嵌合部の上に位置するようになるので、止め部を第１嵌合部に位置合わせする作業が不要になり、容易に押圧係合できる。
また、上記Ｕ字形状部３０の代わりに太断面の段違いループの螺旋形状部部３１を設けることにより、表示板２と止め部４の角度を捩じると、情報記入部５の向きを封緘部分６０に対して任意の角度、例えば、９０度だけ変えることができる。
【００１２】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下図面に基づき本発明による表示部付き封緘具の実施の形態について説明する。
図１、図３、図４に示すように、本発明に係る表示部付き封緘具１は、長円薄板状の表示板２の表面部分に情報記入部５を設けると共に、第１嵌合部20を設ける。また、押圧の際に指先で移動および確認するのに便利なように、この第１嵌合部20のある表示板２の裏側を円盤状に僅かに凸形状に形成する。
【００１３】
更に、表示板２の第１嵌合部20がある側の側部から延長した可撓性の連結部材３を設け、この連結部材３の先端側に円盤状で裏面が僅かに凸形状に形成された止め部４を設け、更に、この止め部４の中心部に第１嵌合部20と押圧により係合する第２嵌合部40を設ける。
この第１嵌合部20は、図１、図４、図５、図６に示すように、第２嵌合部40の嵌合孔43より大きい頭部22と嵌合孔43より小さくて頭部22を支えている首部21とからなる傘形状体に形成され、更に、傘形状体20の内部に空間部23を形成して、表示板２と止め部４が押圧されて頭部22が嵌合孔43を通過する時は弾性変形して潰れて縮径し、通過後は図１０に示すように弾性復帰して拡径して第２嵌合部40に係合する雄部で構成する。
【００１４】
また、第２嵌合部40は、図１、図４、図７、図８、図９に示すように、弾性的に変形して、拡径可能な嵌合孔43を形成する複数の嵌合部材41と、障壁42とを有する雌部で構成する。この嵌合部材41は、円周上に配置され、それぞれが、嵌合孔43の周囲の一部を形成する嵌合部分43ａと、止め部４に連結される支持部分43ｂとから形成される。この支持部分43ｂには、嵌合孔43の周囲の一部を形成している嵌合部分43ａが変形し易いように空間部44を設ける。
【００１５】
また、この障壁42は、複数の嵌合部材41の間にできる隙間45を塞ぐ方向に設けて、第１嵌合部20と第２嵌合部40とが係合した際に嵌合部材41間の隙間45を塞いで、この隙間45をこじ開けて係合を外して封緘を解くのを妨ぐ。
この第１嵌合部20と第２嵌合部40については、図１〜図１０では、第１嵌合部20が前記した雄部で、第２嵌合部40が前記した雌部で形成したが、他の実施の形態として、第１嵌合部20が前記した雌部で、第２嵌合部40が前記した雄部で形成することもできる。
【００１６】
そして、連結部材３は、表示板２の情報記入部５がある部分を一定方向に向けて維持できるようにするため、ある程度の剛性を有し、しかも、封緘し易いように、可撓性を持つように細い棒形状や帯形状で形成される。この連結部材３は、止め部の第１嵌合部20と表示板２の第２嵌合部40とが係合した時に、ループを形成して封緘を行う。
【００１７】
また、更に、前記連結部材３の略中間に他の部分よりも太断面のＵ字形状部30を設けて形成することにより、この部分の剛性と形状により、力を加えない時に、第１嵌合部20と第２嵌合部40を対向させておくことができる。
寸法に関しては、封緘の対象や情報記入に必要な大きさから種々のものが考えられ、限定する必要もないが、代表的なものでは、表示板２の長さは４５ｍｍ、幅は１０ｍｍ、厚さ１．０ｍｍで、第１嵌合部のある部分の最大厚さは１．５ｍｍであり、止め部４の円盤の径は直径１０ｍｍで、最大厚さ１．５ｍｍで、連結部材の直径は０．４〜１．０ｍｍであり、連結部材の長さは１００〜２００ｍｍ程度で、好ましくは約１５０ｍｍとし、封緘し易い長さとする。
【００１８】
次の使用方法を説明する。
先ず、表示板２の情報記入部５に文字やバーコードなどの記号を記入、刻印、貼付等して、包装用容器６等の封緘対象物に関する情報を表示する。
この情報が記入された後に、図２に示すように、包装用容器６の封緘部分60に止め部４を通して、連結部材３を周回させて、表示板２の第１嵌合部20と止め部４の第２嵌合部40を重ね合わせてから、止め部４と表示板２を挟持して押圧して係合し、連結部材３のループを作り、封緘を完成する。
【００１９】
この押圧係合した時には、障壁42が隙間45を塞ぐので、外部から例えばドライバーなどを差し込んで隙間45をこじ開けて係合を解くことを妨害でき、この封緘を保護することができる。そのため、係合している部分は表示板２と止め部４と障壁42とで囲まれて保護されるので、連結部材３のループが第１嵌合部20と第２嵌合部40との係合によって一度封緘されると、この嵌合部分の係合を外すことができなる。
【００２０】
この封緘を解くには、連結部材３をハサミやカッター等で切断するか、係合している部分を破損しなければならないので、封緘が破られたか否かを容易に確認することができる。
また、封緘作業を機械化する場合には、表示部付き封緘具１の情報記入部５に情報を記入した後、止め部４と表示板２を機械の一部で保持して、封緘部分60の入口に止め部４を案内して、挿入開始時または挿入途中で止め部４の保持を解除し、表示板２を保持している機器を押し上げて、連結部材３の剛性を利用して挿入し、自重または、Ｕ字形状部30の剛性により折れ曲がって垂れて来る止め部４を再度保持して、既に保持されている表示板２の第１嵌合部20に対向する位置に移動して押圧することにより、第１嵌合部20と第２嵌合部40を係合して、封緘を完成することができる。そして押圧係合した後に各保持を解除する。
【００２１】
この保持と保持の解除は、機械的に挟持する方法以外に、例えば、吸着盤や止め部４や表示板２の一部に金属を貼り付けて磁力を利用する方法等により簡単に行うことができる。
従って、以上のような構造の表示部付き封緘具１によれば、表示板２を掌で持って包装用容器６の封緘場所60に止め部４を挿入して、出てきた止め部４を折り返して、止め部４を表示板２の第１嵌合部20に親指の腹で誘導して、ボタン形状の止め部４を親指と人指し指とで挟持して押圧するという簡単な片手による操作だけで容易に封緘することができる。
【００２２】
また、情報記入部５を常に表側（手前側）になるように封緘でき、更に、連結部材３の長さによって封緘部分60と情報記入部５との位置関係が決まるので、情報記入部５の封緘部分60に対する距離が一定になり、多数の同形の包装用容器６等を取り扱う時に、情報記入部５が一定の場所に位置するようになるので、表示板２を改めて手に持つ必要がなく、データ読み取り器70を接触又は対向させることができる。そのため、情報記入部５に記入されたバーコード等の情報の読み取り作業が非常に簡単化される。
【００２３】
そのため、封緘作業においても、また、情報の読み取り作業においても、作業を単純化できるので、作業効率を著しく向上することができ、また、機械化・自動化も容易となる。
その上、連結部材３に他より太断面のＵ字形状部30を形成することにより、力を加えない時に第１嵌合部20と第２嵌合部40を対向させておくことができるので、一々第１嵌合部20と第２嵌合部40を向かい合わせる作業が省けて、著しく作業効率を向上できる。
【００２４】
また、他の実施の形態として、図１１に示すようにＵ字形状部30の代わりに太断面の段違いループの螺旋形状部31を設け、表示板２と止め部４の角度を捩じると、情報記入部５の向きを封緘部分60に対して任意の角度例えば９０度だけ変えることができる。
なお、情報記入部５は、表示板２の止め部４側に設けたが、止め部４とは反対側の面に設けてもよく、必要に応じて、両面に設けてもよい。
【００２５】
【発明の効果】
以上の説明から明らかなように、本発明による表示部付き封緘具によれば、表示板を掌で持って封緘場所に止め部を挿入して、折り返してくる止め部を表示部の第１嵌合部に親指の腹で誘導して、ボタン形状の円盤部分を親指と人指し指とで挟持して押圧するという簡単な片手による操作だけで確実に封緘できる。
【００２６】
また、情報記入部が常に表側になるように封緘でき、更に、連結部材の長さによって封緘部分と情報記入部との距離が決まるので、多数の同形の包装用容器等を取り扱う時に、情報記入部が一定の場所に位置することになるので、データ読み取り器をその情報記入部が通過する位置に対向させて置けばよく、情報の読み取り作業を非常に簡単化することができる。
【００２７】
従って、封緘作業においても、また、読み取り作業においても、片手で十分作業できて作業の効率を上げることができ、また、これらの作業に伴う動きも単純になるので、機械化・自動化も容易となる。

As shown in FIGS. 1, 3, and 4, a sealing device 1 with a display unit according to the present invention is provided with an information entry unit 5 on the surface portion of an oblong thin plate-like display plate 2 and a first fitting unit. 20 is provided. In addition, the back side of the display plate 2 with the first fitting portion 20 is formed in a slightly convex shape in a disc shape so that it is convenient for moving and checking with a fingertip during pressing.
[0013]
Further, a flexible connecting member 3 extending from the side where the first fitting portion 20 of the display plate 2 is provided is provided, and a disc-like shape is formed on the tip side of the connecting member 3 so that the back surface is slightly convex. The stopper 4 is provided, and a second fitting portion 40 that is engaged with the first fitting portion 20 by pressing is provided at the center of the stopper 4.
As shown in FIGS. 1, 4, 5, and 6, the first fitting portion 20 has a head 22 larger than the fitting hole 43 of the second fitting portion 40 and a head smaller than the fitting hole 43. It is formed in an umbrella shape body comprising a neck portion 21 supporting the portion 22, and further, a space portion 23 is formed inside the umbrella shape body 20 so that the display plate 2 and the stopper portion 4 are pressed and the head portion 22 is When passing through the fitting hole 43, it is elastically deformed and crushed to reduce its diameter, and after passing, it is composed of a male part that elastically recovers and expands to engage with the second fitting part 40 as shown in FIG. To do.
[0014]
Further, as shown in FIGS. 1, 4, 7, 8, and 9, the second fitting portion 40 is elastically deformed to form a plurality of fittings that form fitting holes 43 that can be expanded in diameter. A female part having a joint member 41 and a barrier 42 is formed. This fitting member 41 is arranged on the circumference, and each is formed from a fitting portion 43a that forms a part of the periphery of the fitting hole 43 and a support portion 43b that is connected to the stopper portion 4. . The support portion 43b is provided with a space 44 so that the fitting portion 43a forming a part of the periphery of the fitting hole 43 is easily deformed.
[0015]
Further, the barrier 42 is provided in a direction to close a gap 45 formed between the plurality of fitting members 41, and the fitting member 41 is engaged when the first fitting portion 20 and the second fitting portion 40 are engaged. The gap 45 between them is closed, and this gap 45 is pry open to disengage and prevent unsealing.
About this 1st fitting part 20 and the 2nd fitting part 40, in FIGS. 1-10, the 1st fitting part 20 is the male part mentioned above, and the 2nd fitting part 40 is formed with the female part mentioned above. However, as another embodiment, the first fitting portion 20 can be formed of the female portion described above, and the second fitting portion 40 can be formed of the male portion described above.
[0016]
The connecting member 3 has a certain degree of rigidity so that the portion where the information entry portion 5 of the display board 2 is located can be maintained in a certain direction, and is flexible so that it can be easily sealed. It is formed in the shape of a thin bar or a band so as to have it. When the first fitting portion 20 of the stopper and the second fitting portion 40 of the display plate 2 are engaged, the connecting member 3 forms a loop and seals.
[0017]
Further, by forming a U-shaped portion 30 having a thicker cross section than the other portion at approximately the middle of the connecting member 3, the first fitting is achieved when no force is applied due to the rigidity and shape of this portion. The joining portion 20 and the second fitting portion 40 can be opposed to each other.
Various dimensions are conceivable depending on the size of the object to be sealed and the information required, and it is not necessary to limit the dimensions. However, in a typical example, the length of the display panel 2 is 45 mm, the width is 10 mm, and the thickness is large. 1.0 mm in length, the maximum thickness of the portion with the first fitting portion is 1.5 mm, the diameter of the disk of the stop portion 4 is 10 mm in diameter, the maximum thickness is 1.5 mm, and the diameter of the connecting member is The length of the connecting member is about 100 to 200 mm, preferably about 150 mm, and is easy to seal.
[0018]
The following usage will be described.
First, symbols, such as characters and bar codes, are entered, stamped, affixed, etc. on the information entry section 5 of the display board 2 to display information about the sealing object such as the packaging container 6.
After this information is entered, as shown in FIG. 2, the coupling member 3 is caused to circulate through the sealing part 60 of the packaging container 6 and the first fitting part 20 and the stopper part of the display plate 2. After the four second fitting portions 40 are overlapped, the stopper portion 4 and the display plate 2 are sandwiched and pressed to engage with each other to form a loop of the connecting member 3 and complete sealing.
[0019]
When this press-engagement is performed, the barrier 42 closes the gap 45, so that, for example, a screwdriver or the like can be inserted from the outside to open the gap 45 to be disengaged, and this sealing can be protected. Therefore, the engaged portion is protected by being surrounded by the display plate 2, the stop portion 4, and the barrier 42, so that the loop of the connecting member 3 is formed between the first fitting portion 20 and the second fitting portion 40. Once sealed by engagement, the engagement portion can be disengaged.
[0020]
In order to release the seal, the connecting member 3 must be cut with scissors, a cutter, or the like, or the engaged portion must be damaged, so that it can be easily confirmed whether the seal has been broken.
When the sealing work is mechanized, information is entered in the information entry part 5 of the sealing device 1 with a display part, and then the stopper part 4 and the display board 2 are held by a part of the machine, The stopper 4 is guided to the entrance, the holding of the stopper 4 is released at the start of insertion or in the middle of insertion, the device holding the display board 2 is pushed up and inserted using the rigidity of the connecting member 3. The holding part 4 that is bent and drooped due to its own weight or the rigidity of the U-shaped part 30 is held again and moved to a position facing the first fitting part 20 of the display panel 2 that is already held and pressed. By doing so, the first fitting part 20 and the second fitting part 40 can be engaged to complete sealing. Each holding is released after the press engagement.
[0021]
In addition to the mechanical clamping method, this holding and releasing can be easily performed by, for example, a method of using a magnetic force by attaching a metal to a part of the suction plate, the stopper 4 or the display panel 2. it can.
Therefore, according to the sealing device 1 with the display portion having the above structure, the stop portion 4 is inserted into the sealing place 60 of the packaging container 6 while holding the display plate 2 with a palm, and the stop portion 4 that has come out is inserted. Folding back, guiding the stopper 4 to the first fitting part 20 of the display board 2 with the belly of the thumb, and pressing the button-shaped stopper 4 between the thumb and the index finger and pressing it with a simple one-handed operation Can be sealed easily.
[0022]
In addition, the information entry part 5 can be sealed so that it is always on the front side (front side), and the positional relationship between the sealing part 60 and the information entry part 5 is determined by the length of the connecting member 3. Since the distance to the sealing portion 60 is constant, and the information entry section 5 is positioned at a certain place when handling a large number of the same packaging containers 6 and the like, there is no need to hold the display board 2 in the hand. The data reader 70 can be contacted or opposed. Therefore, the reading operation of information such as a barcode entered in the information entry unit 5 is greatly simplified.
[0023]
Therefore, since the work can be simplified both in the sealing work and in the information reading work, the work efficiency can be remarkably improved, and mechanization / automation is facilitated.
In addition, by forming the U-shaped portion 30 having a larger cross section than the others in the connecting member 3, the first fitting portion 20 and the second fitting portion 40 can be opposed to each other when no force is applied. The work of making the first fitting portion 20 and the second fitting portion 40 face each other can be omitted, and the working efficiency can be remarkably improved.
[0024]
As another embodiment, as shown in FIG. 11, instead of the U-shaped portion 30, a spiral-shaped portion 31 of a stepped loop having a thick cross section is provided, and the angle between the display plate 2 and the stopper portion 4 is twisted. The direction of the information entry part 5 can be changed by an arbitrary angle with respect to the sealing part 60, for example, 90 degrees.
In addition, although the information entry part 5 was provided in the stop part 4 side of the display board 2, it may be provided in the surface on the opposite side to the stop part 4, and may be provided in both surfaces as needed.

【The invention's effect】
As is clear from the above description, according to the sealing device with a display portion according to the present invention, the stop portion is inserted into the sealing place by holding the display plate with a palm, and the returning stop portion is inserted into the first fitting of the display portion. It can be reliably sealed only by a simple one-handed operation of guiding the joint part with the belly of the thumb and pressing the button-shaped disk part between the thumb and the index finger.
[0026]
In addition, since the information entry part can be sealed so that it is always on the front side, and the distance between the sealed part and the information entry part is determined by the length of the connecting member, information entry is required when handling a large number of identical packaging containers, etc. Since the section is located at a certain place, the data reader may be placed opposite the position where the information entry section passes, and the information reading operation can be greatly simplified.
[0027]
Therefore, both the sealing operation and the reading operation can be performed sufficiently with one hand, so that the efficiency of the operation can be improved, and the movement associated with these operations is simplified, so that mechanization and automation are facilitated. .
